Reading the sseclient documentation, the correct way so use SSEClient seems to be :
from sseclient import SSEClient
messages = SSEClient('http://example.com/sse_stream/')
for msg in messages:
do_something_useful(msg)
Reading the answer on Leshan Github, the stream URL for Leshan Server Demo seems to be http://your.leshan.server.org/event?ep=your_device_endpoint_name
So I tried that :
from sseclient import SSEClient
messages = SSEClient('http://localhost:8080/event?ep=my_device')
for msg in messages:
print (msg.event, msg.data)
And it works for me ! Getting this kind of results when I observe the temperature instance of Leshan Client Demo :
(u'NOTIFICATION', u'{"ep":"my_device","res":"/3303/0","val":{"id":0,"resources":[{"id":5601,"value":-18.9},{"id":5602,"value":31.2},{"id":5700,"value":-18.4},{"id":5701,"value":"cel"}]}}')

If you are interested by notification only, just add a if msg.event == 'NOTIFICATION':
block.
